those portions are hooooooge but at least no one will starve unless of course they don't like the food 

*rushes off to check veggie curry* 

The idea of tapas is to have small portions !

Mr Baz family are from Yorkshire ...I'm a southerner ....took a bit of understanding on both sides at first  

You can imagine what it was like with hubby and I - especially as a lot of our 'courtship' was via telephone.

Actually, we had a conversation last night where hubby was talking about (what I thought) was a baa cake. I kept asking what a baa cake was and he kept saying 'not baa - BAA!' After 5 minutes of going round in circles, I discovered he was saying bar, not baa. He got some stick for not pronouncing his 'rrrrr' properly.

He meant a rectangular slab of cake, btw.

I think that advert does nothing for Brum  

this is what gets me so annoyed Brummies don't speak like that - it's a Black Country accent (Dudley, Cradley Heath, Wednesbury) but not Brummie   that advert makes me go apoplectic 

Ok ...so herdresser is going to mark tactically !

looks like the herdresser is going to mark tactically low 

I've never had a per - is it similar to a pear  even though it was a peach 

  as opposed to an airdresser here 

stop it 

Maybe it's a per peach  

 Hubby drops his aitches - which he pronounces as haitches.

My sons used to take the mickey when they were small, because hubby would tell them to "'old me 'and", instead of "hold my hand".
